Under the federal sentencing guidelines, a conviction for many federal drug charges carries a harsh mandatory sentence in federal prison. In the federal system, there are limited opportunities for parole.

If you learn that the FBI, the DEA or another federal agency for involvement in a federal drug crime is investigating you, the best approach is to talk with a lawyer right away. Working with an attorney early in the process, even before a federal indictment, can help protect your rights. It also gives you the opportunity to build a strong defense and, possibly, even prevent charges from being filed.
